The intent would be an intermediate to Advanced workshop.

ie someone who knows how to process mages, knows why flats, darks etc.. are required but is looking to tak ether skills to the next level in terms of handling things like

Light Polution
Gradients
Color Balance
Deconvolution
levels/Curves/Stretching
masking
Mosaics
Ha Blending

etc.....


That however could be say day 2, with day one being a more beginner to intermediate.....

or it could even follow a typical worflow

eg

Day 1

Image Callibration
Nomalisation
Registration
Combining - techniques. eg Median, vs mean, vs Sigma Reject etc...
Color creation

Day 2
Image Finalisation
- Photoshop levels, curves
- Layers/masks
- gradients
- Ha Blending
Mosaics etc...

The possibilities are endless....

Trick will be that that everyone uses so many different tools for each of these steps. eg CCDStack, Pix Insight, Nebulosity, Imags Plus, Deep Sky Stacker, Iris. etc... the list goes on

In order to run a follow along type working sessions with labs, everyone really needs the same tools....
